HD DVD's better picture quality

I keep hearing the same thing from The Bluray fanboys. Bluray is better, has a better picture, well this is from Widescreen Review magazine. The movies with the best picture, a rating 5 which is excelent

Here is a link to their site where they list all the equipment they use. I think this is kinda old and i'm sure they have updated they system since then but its all I could find for now. Nice pics there anyway.

Well i am not going to start a war of words because yeah, each camp will go "mine is better blah blah blah ..."

personally i prefer Blu-ray why ?

Both formats are HI-DEF ok ? so no argument there.

But Blu ray has (and this is a fact) a numerical aperture of 0.85 compared to HD-DVD's 0.65 (basic DVD has it at 0.60) which allows a flow of data higher for Blu-ray. not twice as much okay, but better.

Now the big reason for me choosing Blu-ray is the amount of data. Blu can contain 50 GB on a double layer disc and HD-DVD only contains 30 GB for a same double layer disc ... this speaks for itself: in a world of HD where movies eat up a huge lot of space, I simply don't want to have to watch some long movies like Lord of the Rings, with the movie cut in half on two HD-DVD's ... and i'm not even mentioning the extras ...

Well beyond that, i don't really care about camps, i got my blu-ray system and i'm happy about it. i just hope i won't be forced to get on the inferior HD-DVD if they win this format war, that's all i'm saying.

i forgot to say, if you got some movie reviews higher on any format, it has nothing to do with what that format can or cannot do, it's cause that specific movie was better encoded, or used H.264 instead of Mpeg2 etc ...

my point being only with what Blu can deliver when at full capacity ...

cheers to all

I won't cheers my fat tire to you until you explain to me why the 50gb blu-ray is superior to HD DVD in any way. What doesn't king kong have?
